Tasting notes
Eric Germain crafts a terrific example of this vineyard from a prime source located in Le Montrachet itself, and the 2021 Montrachet Grand Cru is no exception. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of pear, musk melon, ripe citrus, lemon curd, crushed mint, white flowers and freshly baked bread, it's full-bodied, broad and satiny, with a rich and seamless mid-palate animated by tangy acids, concluding with a saline finish.

The 2021 Montrachet Grand Cru has a curious nose with yellow fruit, lemon verbena, quince and wax resin. It is shaded by the Bâtard-Montrachet to be frank. The palate is quite weighty and very phenolic; with slightly lower acidity than the Bâtard, I found myself desiring more freshness and nerve on the finish. I feel a bit short-changed given the vineyard.
